Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

i have a queston, what are you going to do about the front windshield and the back window? you can't use the same piece because it's wider now.

Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

on the other Escort thread you said you don't know what to do about the interior well here's and idea, if you do decide to put the Ferrari front end on the car then you might as well put Ferrari components in the interior seats, dashboard, center console, luguage set, etc.

Re: ford escort (extremly modded) in progress

dam that bumper from the 550 looks crazy! you seem to kno what you are doing with that fiberglass stuff i think you should GO FOR IT! also the hood it would be a nice conversion project, but thats up to you, project is going to turn out amazing anyway
